What the Pokémon GO Evolution Calculator calculates
The Pokémon GO Evolution Calculator predicts what CP and HP a chosen direct evolution will have. Exact mode keeps level and IVs unchanged while replacing the species base stats; quick mode handles the weaker case where only the current CP is available.
Direct evolution edges and verified Candy amounts are stored apart from species stats. The page does not pretend that Candy alone satisfies walking, item, gender, time, lure, buddy, or regional conditions.
Use the Evolution Calculator
- 1
Select the current form and a direct target from its reviewed family.
- 2
Use exact mode when level and all three IVs are known; otherwise enter current CP in quick mode.
- 3
Check the CP difference and read any Candy value as one requirement, not a complete eligibility verdict.

How This Pokémon GO Evolution Calculator Works01+
Evolution does not reroll the three IVs or Pokémon level in the normal calculation. The calculator first evaluates the current species, then substitutes the evolved species’ base Attack, Defense, and Stamina into the CP and HP equations.
Quick mode searches level-and-IV combinations and retains the closest source-CP matches. It calculates the target for each surviving combination, then reports the minimum and maximum rather than choosing one false exact answer.
Worked Example for the Pokémon GO Evolution Calculator02+
Choose a level 20 Bulbasaur with 15/15/15 IVs and target Ivysaur. Bulbasaur’s base stats produce its current CP, while Ivysaur’s higher 151 Attack, 143 Defense, and 155 Stamina produce the evolved result at that identical CPM and IV spread. The output also shows the direct 25 Candy record.
How to Use the Pokémon GO Evolution Calculator Result03+
A larger CP gain describes the immediate post-evolution display; it does not rank the moveset or PvP usefulness. Open the Stats Calculator for effective-stat context, then the Power Up Calculator if the evolved Pokémon also needs additional levels.
Pokémon GO Evolution Calculator Accuracy and Limitations04+
Quick mode can widen when many IV/level combinations share nearby CP. Evolution branches, event forms, special conditions, and move changes require in-game confirmation. A missing direct edge is shown as unavailable instead of being invented.

Pokémon GO calculator FAQs
Clear answers about calculations, data, independence, privacy and practical use.
Does Pokémon GO evolution change IVs?
Normal evolution keeps the same Attack, Defense, and Stamina IVs, which is why exact mode carries the entered spread into the target calculation.
Why does quick Pokémon GO evolution mode return a range?
Current CP alone does not uniquely reveal level and IVs. Every closest matching combination can lead to a different evolved CP.
Does the Pokémon GO evolution result include move quality?
No. The number covers CP and HP; the evolved moveset and battle performance must be checked separately.
Is the listed Pokémon GO Candy amount always the only requirement?
No. Some evolutions require an item, task, lure, buddy distance, time, gender, region, or another condition in addition to Candy.
